Hold your breath! A thrilling drama of trickery and fake magic unfolded in Nizamabad village, Konaraopet mandal, where three conmen pretended to be spiritual experts to snatch nearly ₹4 lakh from a man named Venu. On November 26, 2025, the sharp-eyed Konaraopet police, led by Inspector Venkateshwarlu, busted this cunning act. The arrested trio - Mekala Naresh, Kadavancha Prasad, and a self-styled sadhu, Sadhula Devender from Rajanna Sircilla district - promised Venu they would perform special rituals. Their lure? To ward off health problems and dig out a hidden treasure of gold in his home! Things got even more dramatic when they performed a fake 'snake bite' ritual right at Venu’s house, pushing him to cough up an extra ₹15,000 for so-called treatment costs. The police recovered ₹3 lakh from these tricksters, exposing their deceit. Venu’s complaint sparked swift action, proving that in the world of cheaters, the truth often bites back hard.
